Bottom Line Up Front The combination of a historically accommodative Federal Reserve and a Federal Government with an incredible fiscal impulse has resulted in an economy that has proven immensely difficult to slow. At the beginning of this hiking cycle, few people – if any – thought the Federal Reserve would be able to push through 475 basis points of tightening in under a year and see little to no progress on slowing the economy. While we likely have not seen the full impact of tightening to date it’s becoming apparent that consumers used pandemic dislocations in policy [...]

Quarterly Outlook Report – Building America Portfolio Update

2023-03-03T12:09:59-08:00

Quarterly Outlook Report - Building America Portfolio Update In a world of uncertainty, few things are as clear as an approved Federal Authorization. Because of this, the companies in Builders can look forward to potentially five years of solid revenue visibility. Congress has already approved nearly $1 trillion in spending for roads, bridges, and other spending related to infrastructure. There are relatively few companies that can do this work, they are at the chokepoint in one of the largest government spending programs in decades. What has been approved so far is just a down payment on decades of [...]

Addressing a Potential Conflict in Ukraine

2022-02-16T14:18:12-08:00

Addressing a Potential Conflict in Ukraine Markets have been moved in recent days on increasing tensions between the United States and Russia, with Western estimates of over 130,000 Russian troops positioned outside of Ukraine at time of writing. Bottom line is that we will get an answer on the Ukraine question soon. Temperatures in Kiev typically increase quite a bit in March, melting snow in continental areas, which turns into mud and can make tank travel extremely difficult until the ground dries later on in the year. If Russia is to have a tactical advantage in the [...]
